“Katia Ancona is a uniquely spiritual individual, blessed with knowing hands and a healing heart. Her presence is gentle, warm and persuasive, and what she persuades us to do is release ourselves into the healing energy that accompanies her.”

- William Kotzwinkle, Screenwriter, E.T. the Extraterrestrial

"Katia is an extremely knowledgeable and skilled massage therapist. She has been trained in anatomy and physiology, and uses this expertise in a friendly way to help you with specific problems you might have. She will teach you stretches or exercises, if you request this. She also gives excellent massages that leave your entire body feeling rejuvenated and relaxed. Recently, while on a 5 day meditation retreat, I received a massage from Katia, and this left me feeling wonderful and ready to practice another three days. I cannot recommend her highly enough." - Jessica H., Psychotherapist

“I’ve come to realize that massage is as important to my health as diet, exercise, and nutritional supplements. I don’t wait for injury or muscle pain to justify the benefit from an hour or more of massage.”

          - Raymond DuCharme, Educational psycologist

"The session I had with Katia was deeply healing on many levels. She even followed up with materials for me to work on some stretches for very tight leg muscles. I have experienced many gifted body workers. She is one of the best."

-Janice Cook Ms ED, organizational consultant/educator [residential retreat participant]
